USL SUPER Y-LEAGUE
The future of soccer lives in the USL Super Y-League, a professionalized system that is the first step for developing elite youth soccer players in North America. Affiliated with US Soccer and partnered with US Club Soccer, the league is designed for talented youth players destined for professional or international careers. The league contains the youth academies of USL First Division, USL Second Division, Premier Development League, W-League, and Major League Soccer clubs, as well as many of the established premier youth clubs. Through Olympic Development Program status events such as the North American Finals and National ODP Camps, the nation’s top players are identified for selection to US National Team Programs. The 2006 campaign features over 800 teams within the U13 – U17 boys and girls age groups competing within 10 geographic divisions of the U.S. and Canada.

Importance to the Club:
The Super Y program is not mandatory for our players, but we strongly recommend that each player take advantage of additional training and matches provided through the participation in this program. The Super Y is offered by the club as part of PSA’s commitment to the development of our players, and it serves to advance the players’ technical levels of play. Additionally, Super Y serves as a chance for teams to stay together and mature together on and off the field.
Mid-Atlantic Region Travel:
Princeton Soccer Association teams will compete in the Mid-Atlantic Region of the Super Y League. Teams playing in the Mid-Atlantic Region are from New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Delaware, Maryland, and Washington DC. Travel is not included in the cost of the program. We should have a final schedule in early February and will determine to what extent teams must travel. We will do our best to minimize travel expenses.
Training:
Training will begin in late April/early May and continue through the completion of the league season. A complete training schedule will be posted soon.
